The Lowdown

Alright, let's get stuck into this. The swell window is looking pretty quiet for a while, but there's some real fire towards the end of the run. Let's take it session by session.

First up, we're at Jaconé. The water temp is sitting about average for the time of year, nothing wild there.

The first week is a bit of a write-off, to be honest. We've got a few days of weak, short-period E and S swell, mostly under 3 ft with periods of 8 seconds, and the winds are a bit messy – cross-on or cross for most of the daylight hours. The combined energy is low, in the double digits (69 to 87), so it's just not doing much. You could get a slide on Friday morning the 24th with a cross-off breeze, but it's tiny at 1 ft. Save your energy.

The pattern shifts on Saturday the 25th. The morning looks glassy with a 3 ft S swell, period at 8 seconds, and the energy picks up to 183. It's surfable, but the conditions are very ordinary. It's a bit of a tease.

Sunday the 26th and Monday the 27th see a real bump in quality. The swell period jumps to 13-14 seconds, which is proper groundswell, and the energy is getting into the moderate range (462 to 505). The catch is the wind. Sunday morning has a light cross-on, which is a bit of a bummer. The standout here is Monday the 27th – morning has clean 3 ft S swell with a 12-second period and a light offshore breeze from the NE. The wave state is clean. That's a solid window for intermediate surfers. The afternoon holds clean too, with a slight drop in size.

Tuesday the 28th continues the good run. Clean conditions again, with a 3 ft S swell and a 12-second period. The offshore wind holds in the morning. It's not huge, but it's clean and consistent.

After that, the swell drops right off through the end of July and the first of August. The energy falls back below 100, and the winds get fluky again. We're looking at a gap of a few days with nothing worth chasing.

Now, here's the big news. Monday the 3rd of August. The morning is a real standout. A 5 ft SSW swell, period of 13 seconds, and a clean cross-off breeze from the ENE. The combined energy hits 1028 – that's strong wave energy. The report says "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." This is the one to circle on the calendar. The afternoon gets a bit bigger at 6 ft, but the wind turns cross-on, so the morning is the window.

Tuesday the 4th of August is a write-off – too much onshore wind and rain, and the swell is over 8 ft, which is getting into expert-only territory and messy.

Wednesday the 5th of August is another cracker. The morning has a clean 6 ft SSE swell with a 13-second period, and very light wind. The energy is 1215. This is big, powerful, and clean. Expert surfers will be licking their lips. The afternoon stays clean with a 5 ft swell.

Thursday the 6th of August has a strong offshore breeze (25 km/h from the NE) with a 4 ft SSE swell – that's a clean, powerful combo for the morning, but the afternoon wind picks up too much.

So, the best on offer is Monday the 3rd of August morning, and Wednesday the 5th of August morning. Both are for experienced surfers, with solid groundswell and clean conditions. The rest of the forecast is mostly small or windy.

Information about the Jaconé Surf forecast

The above surf forecast table for Jaconé provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Jaconé can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Jaconé surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Jaconé) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).

Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Jaconé may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.

Jacone is 14 km (9 miles) from the city of Saquarema. If you plan a holiday in Rio de Janeiro, look for hotels and other accommodation in Saquarema. Saquarema has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
